Chapter 81
According to Liu Qingshan, the ancestor of the Liu family in Jiangnan was named Liu Yuanhua, a person during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty.
Liu Yuanhua studied hard for ten years and was filial and honest, but he failed the next exam many times, let alone the third grade and the first place in the next exam. What would this mean if he changed to this now? Liu Yuanhua was a good candidate in the mid-level entrance examination, but he failed the college entrance examination frequently, let alone the postgraduate entrance examination in the future. In ancient times, it was common for ten years to study hard for the golden list for a while. What should I do if I failed the exam? Most people choose to go back and continue to study hard, which is the same as the current repeat students. Since ancient times, reading seems to be the easiest shortcut for poor families to produce noble children.
Liu Yuanhua failed many times, but he never agreed that he had learned inferior to others. He had one life, two fortunes, three Feng Shui, four relying on Yin De and five readings. This reading is only ranked fifth. After Liu Yuanhua failed the fourth meeting, this scholar who was highly anticipated by the people of Dayin Mountain gritted his teeth and stamped his feet. He burned all the books he had spent all his days studying the past years and burned down the Four Books and Five Classics. Liu Yuanhua picked up another book and studied Feng Shui and Yin Yang Geography. He believed that he was already proficient enough in his study. The reason why he failed repeatedly was that his destiny was not enough. How could people say this sentence now? It was simple, that a person could not eat enough and did not do anything. He didn't think he was not capable of his ability, so he blamed himself for his bad luck. Of course, it was a bit too much to say that Liu Yuanhua was, but the meaning was always like this.
Liu Yuanhua knew that he had lost his pen and had no face to face the fellow villagers of Dayin Mountain, so he simply began to visit famous mountains and rivers all the way to find experts and strangers to seek ways to change his destiny and geomantics. Liu Yuanhua became famous at a young age, could recite poems at three years old, and wrote good calligraphy at four years old, and had been immersed in the sea of books for many years. He also had many years of wandering around, but he could make a living by selling calligraphy and paintings. For his many years of failure, the people of Dayin Mountain thought that he had forgotten the villagers who had supported him for many years after he was given a title. Later, he sent someone to inquire and found out that he had not paid tribute, failed the exam, but did not return to his hometown, and had nowhere to go to search. Everyone just thought he was dead. Even if he was not dead, a scholar who had lost his fighting spirit and wanted no one to die.
There is an old saying that perseverance is victory. From this saying, Liu Yuanhua gave up halfway and was destined to be a useless person. However, there is another saying that changes will make you understand, and that is, you will be able to understand. So sometimes when you think about how good and bad things are all told by the ancients. After all, the world is still judged by success or failure. After ten years of disappearing, Liu Yuanhua really became famous. He spent ten years visiting famous seniors from famous mountains and rivers. With his own insights, he wrote a book called "Liu Gong Feng Shui". Some of the insights and insights of Feng Shui Geography in this book are highly praised in the metaphysical circle. You should know that the name Liu Gong Feng Shui is not something you can do.
What is "public" used? The national scholars are public officials. Before the Tang Dynasty, there was no Feng Shui technique among the people. Geometric technique was a royal secret technique. When Huang Chao attacked Chang'an, Yang Yunsong fled and later brought the emperor's Feng Shui technique to the people, which led to the world's Feng Shui technique. Therefore, people of Feng Shui metaphysics respected Yang Yunsong as their ancestor, and Yang Gong Feng Shui was regarded as the orthodox of the Feng Shui world. Only people like Yang Yunsong can be called "public". Liu Yuanhua's Liu Gong Feng Shui technique obviously wanted to challenge Yang Gong Feng Shui of the ancestor. It can be said that he was arrogant and should have been regarded as a rebellious person. However, when people in the metaphysics circle saw this book, they were shocked by the Liu Gong Feng Shui technique. This shows that Liu Gong Feng Shui technique naturally had his unique side.
The metaphysics community was also extremely prosperous at that time. Most of the reason was that Liu Bowen, the prime minister, divided the world into Zhuge Liang and unified the country. Judging from this sentence, Liu Bowen was even slightly better than Zhuge Liang. In addition to strategizing, Liu Bowen also had a skill, which was a magical trick. He was a metaphysician. With such an idol, it was normal for the metaphysics circle to be prosperous.
After Liu Yuanhua became famous, he really attracted the attention of the Prime Minister Liu Qingtian. Someone came to the door and said that the Prime Minister had invited him. Everyone knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so Liu Yuanhua would not let him go. He immediately packed his luggage and rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion. A scholar who studied poetry but had no use in his use, left behind the books and studied the other way, and instead entered the Prime Minister's Mansion. Liu Yuanhua was also considered a person who could change his mind. If he could enter Liu Bowen's eyes, he would not have a bright future?
Not only Liu Yuanhua thinks so, but also people in the entire metaphysical circle think so, thinking that Liu Yuanhua must have a bright future. Who knew that Liu Yuanhua, who had a passion, entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, and was greeted by a basin of cold water. He stayed in the Prime Minister's Mansion for several months, but he could eat and drink for free all day, but he never saw the Prime Minister summoned him all day. According to the pride of literati, a soldier can be killed and not humiliated. Liu Yuanhua should have left, but if he really left, once the opportunity was missed, his years of hard work would be wasted. Liu Yuanhua was tenacious, although in the Prime Minister's country
The mansion was neglected by Liu Bowen, but he still waited for a year. It took an old man to wait until the winter solstice, and an old man brought a bowl of steaming dumplings. The old man had never seen it before, but Liu Yuanhua could see it at a glance. This person was Liu Bowen who was not in office and had been playing with ten thousand people. If he couldn't even see this, what Liu Yuanhua learned over the years had really learned from dogs. There was a saying in the art of geomantics, not to mention that the old man's demeanor was definitely not comparable to the butler.
Liu Yuanhua finally met the Prime Minister who could determine his destiny for life. The Lord also personally delivered dumplings to himself on the winter solstice. He was moved by crying and was about to kneel down immediately. The Lord waved his hand and put down the dumplings and said, "Eat first."
Liu Yuanhua finished this dumpling with tears, but the crying meant that it was not sadness. After eating, he wanted to thank him again. The adult waved his hand again, put down a book on the table, and then got up and left. From beginning to end, the Prime Minister said today that he would eat first and then talk about four words. Liu Yuanhua picked up the book and read it. Isn’t this the Liu Gong Feng Shui technique that made him famous? It’s just that the name was changed by the Prime Minister to the Liu Family Feng Shui technique. Liu Yuanhua opened the book and found that there were more than a hundred and ten parts in the book, all of which were revised in small characters.
Liu Yuanhua spent a month rereading the feng shui technique of Liu Gong, who had been swearing to compete with Yang Gong, and then looking at the contents that were modified by the Prime Minister, I felt so ashamed. Only then did I realize how naive he thought that the world's number one was, and the sea of knowledge was endless. The world was really higher than the mountain. But he knew even more that the Prime Minister did not meet him before, because he was arrogant and determined to temper his character. If he really left in anger, he would really regret it for life. As for why the Prime Minister wanted to change Liu Gong Feng shui technique to the Liu Family Feng shui technique, he was actually telling himself that he could not hold on to the word Gong, and the Feng shui technique he was proud of back then could only be regarded as one's own opinion.
In fact, after Liu Bowen heard about this book of Liu Gong Feng Shui, he took it and saw that there were many flaws in the book, but many of the views were quite novel and naturally he admired it very much. However, from the word "官网", he knew that Liu Yuanhua must be extremely arrogant and proud. The metaphysical circle also praised this book. This person was in a proud time and needed to beat and beat to sharpen his spirit. Therefore, he did not summon him after calling Liu Yuanhua. This was also a test for Liu Yuanhua. If he could not resist his anger, he would not need such a person himself. As a result, Liu Yuanhua could wait for a year, and saw that his arrogance had almost been polished, Liu Bowen sent it to him with the book he had reviewed. He knew that Liu Yuanhua naturally understood what he meant after reading it.
This is called the art of controlling people. This time, Liu Yuanhua not only lost his arrogance, but also made him provoke his heart to the prime minister Liu Bowen. Of course, Liu Yuanhua also ushered in the greatest opportunity in his life. He became a student of the prime minister Liu Bowen. This was not a huge opportunity for scholars who failed many exams.
The first fold of the Thirteen Zhe song is sung like this:
In the first month, on the first month, Liu Bowen built the city of Beijing, and was able to calculate Miao Guangyi. Before he could predict Xu Maogong, Zhuge Liang borrowed the east wind from the straw boat, and Jiang Taigong killed the general and the gods.
Next, Liu Yuanhua did not become an official through Liu Bowen's relationship, but followed Liu Bowen and participated in the construction of Beijing City.
